On-Campus Interview Models

Before requesting an interviewing schedule, please familiarize yourself with the differences in the On-Campus Interview Models listed below:

Preselect Continuous: Use this model if you would like to continuously invite students as they apply leading up to your on-campus interview date. All invited candidates will have access to sign up for interviews at the same time.

Preselect to Alternate: This model allows you to collect primary and alternate student applicants and handle interview sign ups via Handshake. Primary and alternate student choices are selected after the application period. Primaries are allowed to sign up before alternates.

Room Only: Use this option if you just want to reserve a room, but you want to build your own interview schedule. This option is used for day-after interviews (following Career Fairs), if you are building your own schedule based on a non-OCI job posting or other means.

If you select this model, please email your interview schedule to handshake@jmu.edu before your interviewing date.

You must also schedule all interviews between 8:30am-4:30am, as detailed below in Your Interviewing Day.

Interviewing dates are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, so try to schedule at least four weeks in advance of your preferred date! Scheduling early will assist you in securing a date that is suitable to your recruiting itinerary and will ensure a sufficient number of interview rooms available to meet your needs.

Can't make it to campus but still want to interview JMU students? No problem! Email us at handshake@jmu.edu about interviewing JMU students via Skype.

Dining Options

The Bistro 1908 is an excellent lunch option and is located on the second floor of the Student Success Center. If possible, it is recommended to be at this location as much prior to noon as possible in order to avoid long lines.
